Writing a Book Review
View in PFD Format
A critical book review is a thoughtful discussion of a text's contents, strengths, and limitations. A book review should reflect your capacity to read critically and to evaluate an author's arguments and evidence. Compose your review as you would any essay, with an argument supported by evidence, and a clear, logical structure.
Initial Steps:
1. Read the book carefully, taking notes on material that you think may be relevant or quotable and on your impressions of the author's ideas and arguments.
2. Determine the author's principal argument, the chief themes of the text, the kinds of evidence used, and the way in which the author uses them.
Organizing the Review
1. All reviews begin with bibliographic information: the author's name, the book's full title, place of publication, publisher, edition, date, pagination, and cost, if known.
2. In no more than two paragraphs, introduce the book. Give your initial appraisal of the work, including your key observation on the text. This key observation will be your thesis. Try not to begin with a flat statement such as "This book is interesting." Begin with an anecdote, a challenging quotation, or a key observation.
3. Follow with descriptive analysis and evaluation of the text. You may either treat these topics separately, first describing the book's contents, the...

1. How do you feel you have performed over the last six months in your role?
I feel that my performance is not up to my usual standards, as I have not met my monthly sales targets for the last six months. I feel that my work ethic still feels consistent and I have still been exceeding my customer service targets. I think the lack of sales is due to higher admin work due to the influx of new starters not confident with the processes.
2. What do you feel has gone well over the last six months?
I am an excellent team player and have enjoyed the new responsibility of assisting the new starters. This has helped me increase product knowledge and learn how to train. Alongside that my customer service scores are still exceeding and I have successfully maintained excellent after call work where possible.
3. What do you feel has not gone so well?
Unfortunately although I have a new found responsibility to assist the new starters, my sales targets over the last six months have not met my usual standard. I...

My Review of Bill by Vern Myers
Michael Hemmingson
Bill: A Novella. Vern Myers. NY: Pelican Publishing. 102 pp. Cloth, $17.95.
Reviewed by Gerald Bass
To start, I would like you to know that I am writing this book review on an old fashioned manual typewriter, an Olympia Model 9 in fact, that I purchased at a consignment antique store. I think this machine dates back to the early 1970s. It makes a nostalgic clack-clack-clack sound.[1] I am not writing this book review in solidarity with author Vern Myers (who refuses to use a computer and composes his work on a 1968 Underwood-Miller, and before that a 1909 Corona 3, the same Ernest Hemingway employed for his early works[2]), no; I am afraid my reason is pedestrian in nature: my girlfriend, Michèle, deep-sixed my Sony Vaio laptop into the back end of the toilet, where the water rises after you flush, after what one would call “a heated argument.” She locked herself in the shitter[3] (which she hates me to call the commode), after having grabbed my laptop, stating that I loved my machine more than her; that she was jealous of the attention I gave to my novel-in-progress. Needless to say, my laptop will not start up. A friend told me to let it dry out. I will probably have to take it to a shop and pray that they can recover my...

...﻿Restaurant Reviews: a Genre that Rants and Raves
Introduction
For the past century people have turned to restaurant reviews to guide their culinary experiences. More and more we see this genre becoming apparent in our every day lives. With iPhone apps like Urbanspoon, Yelp, Forkly, Foodspotting, and the New York Times, reading restaurant reviews has become accessible by the touch of a button. However, this new generation of discussion forums and rating systems has made it difficult for the general public to distinguish reliable restaurant reviews from reviews written by nonprofessionals.
The study of restaurant reviews is important because these reviews carry information that a rating or a recommendation alone may not have. For instance, food critics talk about the aura of a restaurant, how it is decorated, the type of people that work there, the cost, and more. Exploring this genre and its patterns is valuable for readers of restaurant reviews because it gives them the “low down” on which reviews provide more helpful information. It’s also important for people who want to write them or entrepreneurs looking to enter into the restaurant business. In this study I will compare food critic reviews with blogger-type reviews using the Food and Wine Magazine and websites like Gayot and Urbanspoon. From these...

...INTRODUCTION
This critical review of the quantitative study “Evaluation of a multiprofessional community stroke team: a randomised controlled trial. Clinical Rehabilitation; 18 pp 40-47
STUDY PURPOSE
The study aims to conclusively evaluate how effective it is to employ a specialist community stroke team for the rehabilitation of stroke victims in a community based setting. This is clearly established at within the opening lines of the article. In the summary at the beginning of the article the author claims that the available evidence is inconclusive and his aim is to provide conclusive proof with regards to evidence based practise for the patient. A research article should state its’ aims clearly and should assume the audience has no previous background knowledge (Greenhalg, 2006).
LITERATURE
The literature reviewed in this article was from a variety of sources such as the Cochrane database and a selection of journal articles. On this basis the authors were able to deduce that previous research carried out provided contradicting reports. For example Roderick et al (2001) as cited by Lincoln et al (2004) found no significant difference in the effectiveness of rehabilitation which had taken place in the home to that which had occurred in a hospital setting. On the contrary Gladman et al (1993) as cited by Lincoln et al (2004) found a significant difference in a small group of younger patients. It was also suggested that there was a shift of focus from...
